Optic nerve sheath meningiomas: prevalence, impact, and management strategies
Eye and Brain, 2018 Optic nerve sheath meningiomas are rare benign neoplasms of the meninges surrounding the optic nerve. They are a significant cause of morbidity. While the mortality rate is practically zero, these tumors can blind or disfigure patients.
